Crist Signs FL Bong Ban

Gov. Charlie Crist has signed bills banning bong sales, cracking down on rogue debt collectors and helping lure baseball teams to Florida for spring training.

Another bill Crist signed Thursday would give a tax break to out-of-state aircraft owners who bring planes to Florida for training or maintenance.

The sale of bongs, water pipes and other devices that can be used with illegal drugs as well as tobacco will be banned except at stores that mostly sell tobacco products.

New regulations will make it easier for the state to pursue consumer complaints against abusive debt collectors.

The spring training bill will expand a state incentive program for Florida communities trying to lure teams from Arizona.
